Save Answe What is the infiltration capacity at 3 hours of a soil that have an initial rate of infiltration equal to 1.30 in./hr and a final capacity of 0.25 in./hr? Use Horton's equation and assume that the time constant k = 0.45
The Horton's infiltration equation for a basin is given by f= 6 + 16e-2t, where 'f' is in mm/hr and tis in hours. What are the values of fo, f and k? If a storm occurs on this basin with an intensity of more than 22 mm/hr, determine the depth of infiltration for first 45 minutes and the average infiltration rate for the first 75 minutes?
If the rain starts at 8.00PM on 10November 2015, use Horton's Equation to solve for the infiltration capacity of the soil (mm per hat 12:30AM the next day. Given the initial infiltration capacity of the soil is 0.0386 cm per min, the time constant as 0.1018 per hour, and the capacity of soit for hrial infiltration is 0.6683 cm per hour.

A reservoir had an average surface area of 20 km² during September 2008. In that month, the mean rate of inflow is 10 m³/s, outflow is 15 m³/s, monthly rainfall is 10 cm and change in storage is 16 Mm³. Assuming the seepage losses to be 1.8 cm, estimate the evaporation in that month.
Please solve this.
Estimate the constant flow rate of withdrawal from a 15 km² reservoir in a month (30days) during which the reservoir level dropped by 1 m despite an average inflow into the reservoir of 0.95 * 10 m³ /day. During the month, the average seepage loss from the reservoir was 4.5cm, the total precipitation on the reservoir was 19.5cm, and the total evaporation was 7.5cm.
Given the earth dam and flow net shown, calculate the seepage loss under the dam if the water height behind the dam is 15ft. The soil has a hydraulic conductivity of 100 ft/year.
